The UI installer for Installed Collectors does not support assigning ingest budgets, use another method.

Collection page

On the Manage Data > Collection > Collection page when editing an existing Collector or creating a new Hosted Collector there is a new option, Assign to a Budget, that allows you to assign an ingest budget to a Collector.

The drop-down displays your ingest budgets in the following format:

<budget name> (<field value>) (<allocated capacity>)

For example, the screenshot above shows CSSdev (cssdev) (19GB). The <budget name> is CSSdev, the <field value> is cssdev, and the <allocated capacity> is 19GB.

Select the ingest budget you want to assign to the Collector and click Save.

Save the JSON to a file and modify it to include the _budget field with the Field Value of the ingest budget to assign. In the following example, the Field Value of the ingest budget is test_budget and the JSON file is named updated_collector.json.
